Bohan & Membre-sur-Semois

My aunt and uncle had a caravan in Membre-sur-Semois when I was little and I spent quite a lot of weekends and holidays there. This small village with no more than 140 inhabitants is situated on the border of the river Semois and is entirely surrounded by woods and hills. The last time I've been in Membre-sur-Semois was almost twenty years ago, but I was in the neighborhood earlier this month and so we took a little detour to visit the village I was once so familiar with.

We also made a stop in the nearby village of Bohan where we used to do our shopping and outings. Cute fact: my boyfriend spent several holidays here as well. We didn't know each other back then, but there have been several occasions where we've been at the same place at the same time.

What are you nostalgic for? Have you ever returned (or wanted to) to places you have known as a child?
